I want to translate an object in my local data model that has multiple elements into an extension with multiple elements. Is the correct way to do this by using a nested extension within an extension (like the code below from the documentation: https://www.hl7.org/fhir/extensibility.html )?
{
    "resourceType": "Patient",
    "extension": [{
        "url": "http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/patient-clinicalTrial",
        "extension": [{
            "url": "NCT",
            "valueString": "123456789"
        },
        {
            "url": "period",
            "valuePeriod": {
                "start": "2009-03-14"
            }
        },
        {
            "url": "reason",
            "valueCodeableConcept": {
                "coding": [{
                    "system": "http://acme.org/codes/general",
                    "code": "tt14j"
                }]
            }
        },
        {
            "url": "http://acme.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/registrar",
            "valueReference": {
                "reference": "Practitioner/example"
            }
        }]
    }]
}
